Image reprocessed on
6-2-03 using a vignette removal technique from Jerry Lodriguss'
excellent e-book - Photoshop for
Astrophotographers. It was interesting to remember
just how big this comet was. When I was reworking the image, I realized that the Big
Dipper (Ursa Major) is centered in the image. This large constellation is dwarfed by
this amazing comet.
Here is the previous version of this image.
